| You took a part of me That I really miss
|
| I keep askin' myself
|
| «How long can it go on like this?»
|
| You told yourself a lie
|
| That’s all right, I told myself one, too
|
| Well, I try to get closer,
|
| But I’m still a million miles from you
|
| You took the silver
|
| You took the gold
|
| You left me standin' out in the cold
|
| People ask about you
|
| I didn’t tell them everything I knew
|
| Well, I try to get closer,
|
| But I’m still a million miles from you
|
| I’m driftin' in and out
|
| Of dreamless sleep
|
| Somewhow my memory’s in a ditch
|
| A ditch so deep
|
| I did some many things
|
| I never did intend to do And I try to get closer,
|
| But I’m still a million miles from you
|
| Well, I don’t dare close my eyes
|
| And I don’t dare wink
|
| Maybe in the next life,
|
| I’ll be able to hear myself think
|
| I feel like talkin' to somebody
|
| I just don’t know who
|
| Well I try to get closer,
|
| But I’m still a million miles from you
|
| Rock me pretty baby
|
| Rock me all at once
|
| Rock me for a little while
|
| And rock me for a couple of months
|
| You know, honey, I’ll rock you, too
|
| Well I try to get closer,
|
| But I’m still a million miles from you
|
| Well, there’s voices in the night
|
| Tryin' to be heard
|
| I’m sittin' here listenin' to every
|
| Mind pollutin' word
|
| And I know, I know plenty of people
|
| That’d put me up for a day or two
|
| Yes, I try to get closer,
|
| But I’m still a million miles
|
| Yes, I try to get closer,
|
| But I’m still a million miles from you |
